The Memory Manor - Huge Beautiful Victorian Home

Description from the owner

The Memory Manor is intended to be a place to preserve memories and create new ones! Visit us here, in the heart of Illinois, where you can enjoy a peaceful and serene weekend escape at our smoke-free home. Our unique setting in small town America makes for a great getaway for any group. This is the perfect place for families, Red Hatters, MOPS groups, women's bible study groups, coworkers, reunions with old classmates, or just friends wanting to hang out and relax.

The manor has been lovingly restored to its original beauty, with beautiful hardwood floors throughout the home. An elegant Swarovski crystal chandelier hangs in the front foyer. All through the home, stately antiques are carefully placed, taking you back to the era of the home's construction. The dining room table comfortably accommodates 10 guests and features a lovely antique chandelier.
While here, you can relax on the porch swing for an afternoon, or sip tea on the wicker furniture awaiting you on the huge wraparound porch. Or, you may choose to visit the many attractions in historic Watseka. The Roff House, setting for the movie, "The Possessed" and the location of the paranormal event known as the Watseka Wonder is within walking distance. A 30-minute drive will take you to the Rantoul Air museum.

"Memorial Getaway"

Left on 11/12/2014 for a stay in November 2014 | Abe SReviewed Nov 12, 2014Stayed Nov 2014

This house was exactly as advertised; spacious, well furnished, with all the amenities for a relaxing vacation.
The manor was absolutely perfect for our weekend get together, which is an annual reunion of geeky friends where we play board and card games. While no scrap booking occurred, the large room with multiple tables, and the large dinning room table was great and allowed everyone to enjoy their time. Each person had their own bed, and plenty of comfort.
The hot tub was well maintained and had a nice privacy fence. The kitchen is large, and has two ovens!
There are three bathrooms, but only one shower. There is a bath tub in one bathroom. Also be warned if you are a light sleeper there is an active train track 2 blocks away. We were there right during harvest, so the train was really active. Some ear plugs for the light sleepers solved the problem.
We were not the typical guest to the manor, but the owner was friendly and accommodating. We are all looking forward to the next reunion, and hopefully we can book the manor again!

"Beautiful setting to create beautiful memories!"

I have had the opportunity to use this gorgeous home over the last few years. I am a scrapbooker and this house is designed to host up to 12 adults with enough scrap area to serve all our needs. Quilters would also find the space ample for them. The home is maintained beautifully with updated bathrooms. Sleep space is spacious and beds are comfy. The town itself boasts lots to do if you want to get out and enjoy the outdoors. Our group always has a wonderful time and the owners are very pleasant and helpful. I would recommend this home to any group looking for a get away.
